KELSO PWS is one of 489 community water systems in Missouri in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 586 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 2012 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.
Of the 6, 5 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
